UPDATE:The Spokane County Prosecutors Office has reviewed the case of the Officer Involved Shooting (OIS) incident on February 11, 2014 involving Spokane County deputies and Jed Zillmer. The incident occurred in the intersection of Indiana and Sullivan in Spokane Valley. The Prosecutor has determined there is no criminal liability for Spokane County Deputies Thurman, Walter, Hubbell, Hirzel, Moyer, and Watts.

The incident was investigated multiple local agencies. The Spokane Police Department was the managing agency in this investigation. The SIRR Team completed its investigation, which was forwarded to the Spokane County Prosecutors Office for review.

In his legal analysis, Deputy Prosecutor Driscoll concluded:

“The deputies were justified in their use of deadly force. Mr. Zillmer was heavily armed, wearing a bullet-proof vest, and repeatedly stated that he wanted to engage law enforcement and force them to shoot him, even stating that he would shoot civilians if law enforcement took too long. He was involved in a high speed pursuit on a heavily travelled interstate, endangering both the officers and others. He stopped in an area where there were many civilians, with access to a nearby shopping mall, as well as numerous law enforcement officers. Officers gave him numerous opportunities to end this peacefully. When shot, he appeared to the officers to be reaching with his left hand for a weapon inside his vest, while still holding a weapon in his right hand. A weapon was found in the vest area where he was seen reaching. Officers clearly had probable cause to believe Mr. Zillmer posed a threat of serious physical harm to officers and civilians alike. He was armed with a pistol that he refused to put down, had access to many others and stated an intent to use them if not stopped. Officers were acting in a good faith belief that their use of deadly force was justified, without malice or evil intent. No criminal liability attaches and no charges will be filed.”
